Jim going on road trip tomorrow


Jim is going to take a road trip to the hospital tomorrow. He is going to have an EEG and a neck and head CT scan. Why you ask, well he is been having an event. I am not sure what to call it because they do not know what it is. Sometimes his eyes will roll back in his head and he is unresponsive for about a minute. During this time the EKG, blood pressure and oxygen levels all remain normal. So tomorrow they are going to try to determine what is going on. Jim does not remember these and he is fully alert afterward. He has had no deminised brain activity that we know of. He is still alert and fully aware of what is going on. The doctor explained all of this to him and he understood. We probably won't know anything until Monday so don't worry.
Jim had dialysis today and they took 2 liters of fluids off of him. This is compared to the 4 liters they used to take. Small steps.
If anyone would like to send Jim a valentine card his address is: 6150 Edgelake Drive, Sarasota, FL 34240. He enyoys the cards. Thanks, Nancy, Cathy C. and Tom B. for the cards.
There will probably no be a post tomorrow as I am going to Scrap Therapy from 3 until midnight.
